February 14 "Fiding Your Spiritual Gifts" presented by Christ Kibbey. God has given us two important gifts. The first is the gift of faith in Jesus CHrist. The second is the gift of one or more special abilities, called spiritual gifts, which are to be used for the purpose of unifying the body of Christ and for the growth of God's Kingdom. Like other presents, it is impossible to fully appreciate and make use of our spiritual gits until they have been opened. Join us in discovering your unique gifts and learn more about their role in God's kingdom.
February 21 "Understanding Stephen Ministry" Stephen Ministers have been providing cofidential caregiving at Christ Lutheran for over six years. Linda Griffith will talk about the program and the care Stephen Ministers offer the congregation and family members and persons in the community.
February 28 "Stirring Your Soul in South Dakota" presented by Sylvia Rogers. Sylvia and members of Emmanuel Episcopal Church will recount their experiences on the adult mission trip to the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. This has become an annual learning and sharing experience for the Christ Lutheran and Emmanuel Episcopal congregations. Each year ties are strengthened between the people of Rosebud and St. Louis, and more life lessons are learned.
From June through August programs are offered on a limited basis following the worship service. Information will be published in the weekly worship bulletin, the weekly email update, and "One in Christ," the monthly newsletter.
